Physical activity is an essential aspect in children; it is good for everyone, but it is more necessary for the mental and physical development during the growing phase, in order to ensure proper development of both organs and systems, improving strength, sprightliness, stamina and more; it also reduces the risks caused by overweight and related diseases, with greatest benefits for the future adult’s health.
It is an educational means that allows expressing one’s own personality, even for the most timid, and is an excellent and healthy outlet for the more exuberant.
There is also a positive relationship between sports and learning, because it provides benefits to the brain and to the nervous system, improving one’s attention and concentration.
Accustoming our children to exercise from an early age is very important, and therefore it should be sufficient to go out cycling together leisurely, or go for a walk in the open and also eat in a healthy, balanced and colourful way: they will adopt this daily lifestyle and healthy habit in order to grow well; and for us adults it shall be a great excuse to keep fit and young.
When the whole family exercises, we carry with us our practical favourite tasting Grok packaging, being an excellent light low calorie snack, full of energy for sportsmen and for those who love outdoor life.
